What guests think

At Time Out Hotel, travellers consistently praise the excellent, walkable location by Dover Beach and St Lawrence Gap and the generally friendly, helpful staff, while noting dated rooms, patchy amenities, and nightlife noise that can carry late.

Many reviews highlight clean, spacious rooms and a well-kept pool, but some report intermittent hot water and low water pressure, plus no elevator. Housekeeping and supplies are inconsistent, with repeated mentions of missing shampoo or washcloths, limited towels or blankets, and occasional maintenance issues. On-site dining and breakfast feedback is mixed, with some enjoying bar food and live music while others cite slow or disappointing meals. Overall, expect a budget-friendly base best for beach access and nightlife rather than quiet, full-service comfort.

So location is great for beach - and for night clubs in the gap. No lifts but staff will help carry your bags to room. Nice pool.

Personnel accueillant à la réception. L'hotel est très bien située à 1 min de la plage , mais pas en bordure de plage. L'état général de l'endroit est plutôt vieillot mais tout de même bien entretenu. Les chambres sont de bonne dimension avec balcon. Le nôtre donnaitbsur la rue. Le système de climatisation ainsi que l'eau chaude fonctionnent parfaitement. Nous avions un lit king très confortable plutôt ferme. Il n'y avait qu'un drap pour nous couvrir. La cour intérieure est bien aménagée. La piscine est propre et il y avait plusieurs chaises à notre disposition. Nous y avons aperçu une famille de singes. L'hotel est à proximité de la plage Dover, qui est très bien. Des locaux vous louent des chaises pour environ 15Bds. Vous trouverez des restaurants, marchés, souvenirs, jaraoke, live bands et clubs à distance de marche, en plus de taxis en face de l'hotel pour vos déplacements. Nous n'avons pas pris de déjeuner à l'hôtel mais le rum punch qu'ils servent est le meilleur que j'ai goûté!

The hotel was located within walking distance to St Lawrence Gap, the beach is across the street, there is an on-site beautifully maintained pool, and the restaurant had a live band one night and a DJ on another, perfect way to end the day. The reception desk staff especially Danielle, Ms Leona from housekeeping and the security staff were all courteous, professional and helpful. I would definitely stay at Time Out again even as a solo traveler. One downside is that there is no elevator.

We love the location. It was not our first visit and don’t have to venture out. Restaurants were easily accessible. Room was comfortable. The only concern we had was access to items such as ice or glass since the restaurant did not belong to the property

The stay was okay. The rooms are not cleaned daily and they do not provide towels daily. When I arrived the light was not working and was not fixed until the next day. The person who came in to clean left our room unattended. When I returned to my room the door was wide open with no one in the room. The cleaning person did not come back to my room until 15 mins after I arrived who knows how long she left prior with the door wide open.

Least restful vacation we have ever had. Extremely noisy at night unless you have the fortune of night off from livel music until 1 or 2 am from about 8-9 pm; eviscerating guitar bass and ampliified taling very nearby. Awakened between 3-6 am by a flock of local roosters, followed by an incessant barking dog for a few hours. Lacks a small book with a map and pertinent businesses (markets, other restaurants, etc. They did not. Staff friendly but do not volunteer information and only a minimum at that. Staff cordial however, inside, maids and general staff. Very congenial and skilled. Adjacent restaurant which is rented, is noisy in the evening witih overmiking of music. Food average or less. Want coffee ? make it yourself ( we'll supply the mug, hot water and Nescafe and charge you for the coffee. Repeat for secojnd cup, minus the cup. Pool is clean though it is risky having a short sixth step and tiles in water are sllippery because they are wet. Concrete would be much safer. After returning home I fell asleep at the dinner table; first time ever. We used AC sparingly but the syystem functions well. We found it too cold even at 25 C with the fan on; since only a sheet is supplied I would submit that a blanket or comforter would be useful to either cover the sheet or be kept in the room if is not needed.

Views were amazing, and the beach is literally across the street. The location is everything. A few steps left or right you’ll be satisfied. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. A few things that need attention: small tv, no microwave in the room and no elevator. They only give you 2 bath towels. Bring your own wash cloth, hand towel and floor mat.

Great location, spacious room, enjoyed the pool area, and right across from a great beach! Didn’t eat at the restaurant as there were so many other places to also check out nearby. Room had 2 single beds, and the mattress was a bit bigger than the box spring/bases so I did often feel like I was going to fall off the bed when near the edges. No hot water, but I suppose I didn’t really need it with how amazing the weather was. Would be an issue in cooler months but perhaps there is proper hot water then. Overall no complains, great for the price, would stay here again for sure.

My check in was absolutely great. The staff there are very friendly & helpful. The only things that I did not like was the water pressure in the shower was very low, the people at the hotel that stayed were very noisy & the bed is not king size, it’s 2 twin beds together which made it very uncomfortable. It did not seem like it was a Superior room at all.

BEWARE! If you book late in the evening you may not be able to get access to your room. Booked at 9:15pm. Got to property to check in at 10pm and was denied access by their security. Security is the only staff on the property after 10pm. Security refused to check us in because security did not have access to the computer system. Security had to call an employee while she was on vacation to allow us in the room.

The biggest stand out at this hotel was the staff - so helpful and accommodating! We stored our luggage all day and had use of their refreshment room before our flight back which was great. The rooms themselves are spacious and the beds comfy. Good location with the beach opposite and St Lawrence Gap just a short walk away with an array of bars and restaurants. Great stay!

Satisfactory for the quality of accomodation. However, staff knowledge, or systems inaccuracy needs addressing. Three times we were advised of guest benefits only to be told the next day the benefits were not then available. It was quite disappointing to be made a promise three times an ls then never attempt to fulfill them especially when it was the hotels error. Satisfying the guest, therefore, does not seem to be the guiding principle.

PROS: Inexpensive, very clean lobby, rooms, pool area, reataurant and other common areas. CONS: Dares property that needs to be reburshished. Fake wood panels falling off deesser and bathroom vanity. Very low water flow in bathroom, sink and shower. Food not appertizng. Pancakes tasted as if cooked day prior and warmed up in microwave. Orange juice was Tang and not orange juice. No wash towels in bathroom and if you bring your own, cleaning staff will take it when cleaning room. Do not advise paying for the daily breakfast or eating other meals at the hotel. There are decent reatairants within vicinity of hotel to get a good meal.
